Description
Summary:This paper analyzes the access to adequate feeding conditions for artisanal fishermen from the Campos Basin. A study based on an empirical approach carried out in seven municipalities on the north coast of the state of Rio de Janeiro affected by oil and gas activities. The "Food Survey for Fishermen" survey was carried out within a sample of 3,278 families of artisanal fishermen in the framework of the Census PEA-Pescarte, using the methodology of the Brazilian Scale of Food Insecurity - EBIA. The results point out a significant degree of Food Insecurity in the cohort investigated. The situation is a paradox for families producing food and points out the need for better public policies focused on the family of fishermen.
